Halt slowly laid down as Adriana laid down next to him. She made sure that nothing of her touched him, as if she thought he couldn't stand her touch. He frowned as he blew out the candle in the room.

He looked over to where he could faintly see Adriana's shape in the dark. it was so close, yet at the same time, so far away. He raised his hand to his face, he only saw the outline of it. His thoughts becoming fast uncontrolable... He just, wanted to be close to someone again... it gave him strength, hope, and comfort.

With out thinking, his hand lowered to his side, hesitently touching Adriana's hand, but after a breif moment, rested his fingers against hers. His mind closed to all but hers, he didn't want Klassh to sense what he was doing.
